Ingredients
- ½ butter stick
- 2 tablespoons flour or more as needed
- 1 teaspoon chili flakes
- 1/4 teaspoon salt
- 8 ounces beer or use vegetable or chicken stock, or milk, for a non-beer option, light yet flavorful
- 3 ounces cream cheese
- 8 ounces White Cheddar Cheese or any similar melty cheese, shredded
Instructions
- First, make your cheese by melting the butter in a pot over medium heat.
- Next, add the flour and stir. Cook for 10 minutes while continually stirring, until the roux begins to brown a bit. If it does not thicken up into a good roux, add another tablespoon or 2 of flour, then continue to stir until it thickens to a paste, and until it begins to brown lightly.
- Add the chili flakes and salt, then stir in the beer, still stirring continually, until the mixture thickens a bit, about 5 minutes.
- Stir in the cream cheese until melted and incorporated throughout.
- Finally, stir in most of the shredded cheddar cheese a bit at a time, continually stirring, until it melts through and becomes an AMAZING CHEESE SAUCE.
Notes
- It's that simple! What you have is a super creamy, melty cheese that goes anywhere cheese likes to go. Makes about 2-1/2 cups or so. Enjoy!
